i hate that they have all these lame golden nuggets hidden in the details. the creative brief for these should simply state: make them look cool and nothing more.

HORN next year
so the dumb design gimmick for the wolves at least based on what i've read is that the stripe of weird colored rectangles will be slightly different for each jersey making them a one of a kind treasure for the ages

five different nike jerseys designs per team per year + ad patches + constant betting ads have completely changed the face of the nba in just a couple of years

idk the whole pdx carpet <3 thing makes me really mad it was cute 15 years ago but it became such an inescapable meme of post-portlandia normies I just can’t take it, sorry to bomb the jerseys thread with my white hot civic rage at our changing economic demographics leading to cutesy bullshit
― Clay, Thursday, 10 November 2022 23:45 (one year ago) link

aww silby tyvm, i'd honestly like to do that but i don't want to sell my house or deal with seattle rents. plus i have a medical thing that makes walking up hills really hard so seattle may be out of bounds for me. I usually see k878 when i visit though, which I'd like to do this spring, you should come along!

+ coaches not wearing suits, like a lot of things these days theres less of a sense of occasion, glamour, as boxing is to mma, it is what it is
― lag∞n, Saturday, 12 November 2022 03:46 (one year ago) link
was thinking it wld be funny if the head coach had to wear special athleisure, like the assistants do gray outfits and the coach wears team colors
― lag∞n, Saturday, 12 November 2022 03:48 (one year ago) link
that would be great. "this one is the special head boy"

if the head coach gets ejected the lead assistant has to put on a yellow or teal or whatever quarter zip

Re: the Bucks cream jerseys
“I’m not sure I want to deal with the can of worms it will open, so I’ll tell you privately,” he wrote back. “But you, in particular, are going to hate it: Teams can’t wear cream anymore because it interferes with the digital ads that are placed on the court in broadcast due to the uniforms being so close to the color of the wood that is keyed out in the process.”

agreed, you need to buy a cream jersey at a pro shoppe
